REAR VIEW MIRROR SIGHT LINE IS SEVERELY RESTRICTED TO A SMALL CENTERED TUNNEL LIKE AREA. *TS THE CONSUMER STATED, WHEN THE REAR BENCH IS FOLDED DOWN, THE HEAD REST MAKES CONTACT WITH THE DRIVERS SEAT, WHICH DOES NOT CREATE A FLAT PLATFORM AS DESIGNED. MOVING THE FRONT SEAT FORWARD TO ACCOMMODATE THE REAR FOLDING SEAT, COMPRISES THE DRIVERS POSITION BY MAKING IT EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AND CRAMPED. CONSEQUENTLY, THE FEATURE DOESN'T WORK. THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE MANUAL STATING THERE WAS AN OPTION TO REMOVE THE HEAD RESTS. THE CONSUMER WAS NOT GETTING THE CORRECT MPG. AT NIGHT, WHEN THE CLOCK AND RADIO DASH LIGHTS ARE ON, THE BLUE/GREEN HORIZONTAL DISPLAY LIGHT REFLECT TO THE REAR WINDOW.

THE VEHICLE WAS BEING PARKED INTO THE GARAGE AND THE RPMS REVVED TO 5,500. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT IT FELT LIKE THE CRUISE CONTROL HAD KICKED IN, BUT THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ON. THEN, THE CONSUMER CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, AND THEY TOLD HIM TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED THE CONSUMER BACK AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE FOR A DAY AND TOLD THE CONSUMER TO COME AND GET THE VEHICLE. THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY INCIDENT OCCURRED.

THE "2005 GMC CANYON" PICK-UP AND SIMILAR VEHICLES MADE BY THIS MANUFACTURER LACK KEYED ACCESS LOCKS ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE DOORS. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY, BECAUSE THERE IS NO PRACTICAL WAY TO READILY ACCESS THE VEHICLE FROM THE PASSENGER-SIDE, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL THAT THE VEHICLE OWNER OR PASSENGERS WOULD BE EXPOSED TO UNDUE HARM. IT IS TAKEN FOR GRANTED BY MOST CONSUMERS THAT VEHICLES COME WITH KEYED ACCESS ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE, BUT NOWHERE IN THE MANUFACTURERS LITERATURE DOES IT MENTION THAT THERE ARE NO OUTSIDE LOCKS ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE OF THESE VEHICLES. IF A CONSUMER WERE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE WITH POWER LOCKS, THIS WOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE, UNLESS THERE WAS A POWER FAILURE TO THE VEHICLE, BUT VEHICLES SOLD THAT DO NOT COME WITH THE POWER DOOR LOCK FEATURE, DO NOT COME WITH OUTSIDE DOOR LOCKS ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD RETROFIT THESE VEHICLES WITH OUTSIDE DOOR LOCKS. *JB

GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2011, CHEVROLET COLORADO, GMC CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006, ISUZU I-280/I-350, AND MODEL YEAR 2007-2008, I-290/I-370, REGULAR CAB VEHICLES AND EXTENDED CAB VEHICLES WITHOUT A REAR SEAT AND EQUIPPED WITH A FRONT 60/40 SPLIT BENCH SEAT. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 225, "CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS." THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE AND THE OWNER MANUAL DOES NOT INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING HOW TO USE THE TOP TETHER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: BOTH NHTSA AND GM DISCOURAGE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A FRONT SEAT. NEVERTHELESS, THERE ARE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY REQUIRE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A RESTRAINT IN THE FRONT CENTER SEATING POSITION OF THIS VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT OFFER A REAR SEAT. LACK OF ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR AND A LACK OF INSTRUCTIONS AS TO HOW TO USE IT, MAY RESULT IN IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT CAN RESULT IN A REDUCTION IN THE RESTRAINT'S PERFORMANCE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH AND AN INCREASED RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD SEATED IN THE RESTRAINT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL CUT A HOLE INTO THE BACK PANEL TRIM COVER TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT POSITION AND WILL PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION AS TO USE IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR VISIT GM'S WEBSITE AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.
GM IS RECALLING 185,903 MODEL YEAR 2004-2009 COLORADO, GMC MODEL YEAR 2009-2004 CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006 I-280, I-350, MODEL YEAR 2007-2008 I-290, AND I-370, PASSENGER VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF ALABAMA, ARIZONA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, HAWAII, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, NEVADA, NEW MEXICO, PUERTO RICO, SOUTH CAROLINA, TEXAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND UTAH. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A BRAKE LAMP SWITCH THAT MAY NOT WORK AS DESIGNED DUE TO CONTAMINATION IN THE SWITCH.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE THE SIMULTANEOUS LOSS OF ALL BRAKE LAMPS OR CAUSE ALL OF THE BRAKE LAMPS TO STAY ON CONTINUOUSLY. BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS COULD FAIL TO WARN OTHERS OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS AND COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE NECESSARY COMPONENTS AS SPECIFIED IN THE RECALL BULLETIN FREE OF CHARGE. GM ANTICIPATES THAT PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE BY JUNE 2010. A SPECIAL COVERAGE FOR VEHICLES REGISTERED IN ALL OTHER STATES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE SAME TIME FRAME. IN THE INTERIM, OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE CAN OBTAIN A FREE REPAIR, HOWEVER THEY WILL BE REQUIRED TO RETURN WHEN THE NEW DESIGN PART BECOMES AVAILABLE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.
CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS MAY EXPERIENCE THE PERMANENT LOSS OF BRAKE LAMP FUNCTION OR BRAKE LAMPS THAT ARE ILLUMINATED AT ALL TIMES. THE CENTER HIGH-MOUNTED STOP LAMP (CHMSL) IS AFFECTED IN BOTH INSTANCES. ALSO, IF EQUIPPED, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL BECOME INOPERATIVE. ANY TRAILER BRAKE LAMPS WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMP WIRING WILL MIMIC THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMPS WHEN EITHER CONDITION OCCURS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A FOLLOWING DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHEN THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN APPLIED, AND A REAR-END CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH ASSEMBLY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438; GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 OR ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727.
